but it all goes back;

Lately, Tyler had been feeling he was not really a person. Instead, he was just an illusion of a person. He knew who he was to his friends: the one who was constantly tripping and making people laugh; the one with the over the board obsession with Doctor Who, which was actually pretty adorable, too; the one who was always there. But who was he when he didn't have to be those people? He didn't know.

For a long time, he hadn't thought about it. Up until recently, he'd always wanted to just be with his friends and nothing else really mattered. It was only when, during Christmas holidays, at the table on Christmas day, that his grandfather had asked:

"Well laddie, what are you gonna do when you get out of that freak school of yours?"

No one in the family besides his parents and his grandparents knew he was a wizard. Grandpa John always called "freak school" as a joke. None of that was the most unnerving thing about that question. No; the most unnerving thing was its allusion to his future. Tyler hadn't been able to find a concrete answer. What was he going to do with his life after school? Of course, he was only in fifth year and he still had two years to think about that, but still. Most people already knew what they were going to do, whereas he hadn't even begun to think about it.

That'd put his whole life into perspective. The only interest he had in life was Doctor Who and comic books. What the hell was he going to do with that? He was alright at school, but definitely not at the top of the class. When he thought about it, he wasn't really good at anything.

That was why he was sitting in his room at 3pm on a Saturday studying  Alchemy, whereas a few months back he would've probably been out in Hogsmeade with his mates. He had to start figuring out what he wanted to do, and fast. Otherwise, he'd wound up being some lowlife who lived off his parents and he didn't want that. He just didn't want to let anybody down.

Tyler North is fifteen and people mistake him for Thomas Sangster. He is a fifth year Ravenclaw & muggleborn. He is currentlyopen/closed.

Have you ever idolized a fictional character? Tyler North has, to the extreme. It all started when Tyler was eight, and he first watched an old episode of Doctor Who. Since then, it’s all he’s been able to think about; that blue box flying through time and space, the wonderful companions, but most of all The Doctor. What used to be a merely liking of the show quickly became an obsession, to an extent that the now fifteen year old boy found himself doing absolutely anything to be like The Doctor, adopting all of his traits to degree that it’s now become second nature to him.

Of course, getting accepted to Hogwarts threw a bit of a spin on the eccentric boys’ world view, as he struggled to accept that The Doctor wouldn’t be there to take him on adventures, but as soon as he arrived at Diagon Alley, he realized that, perhaps, he didn’t need The Doctor, that he could have adventures himself. Still heavily into anything even slightly related to Doctor Who, his obsession has finally started to die down, even if only slightly, as he takes the lessons he’s learnt from the show and becomes his own person. 

Fun and kooky, Tyler tries his best to be there for others, with a cheeky grin as he helps distract them from their problems, at least for long enough that he can help fix what ever may be ailing them. Eagerly throwing himself into each task his teachers assign him, his loud extroverted manner works surprisingly well with his Ravenclaw smarts as he relishes every piece of information he gains. With a slight hero complex, owing to his obsession, Tyler is, thankfully, intelligent enough to realise that actions aren’t always what matters, sometimes you need to sit back and truly study the situation first.

Tyler is really caring and loyal. He will always go out of his way to make sure you’re okay,it doesn’t matter if you’re his best friend or an absolute stranger. He cares about people and won’t ever judge you without knowing all the facts first. Recently, he’s found himself coming more and more out of his comfort zone, meeting new people like Josh Hastings, in whom he found a person to look up to asides the Doctor; a real person, someone he can ask for advice and guidance when he needs it.

character’s traits;

+ clever, dedicated & extroverted - distracted & has a short attention span

character’s connections;

If there’s anyone Tyler knows for sure he loves, it’s Rowena Pickett. He would anything for her, go to the ends of Earth, just to see her smile. There two have that sort of relationship where everyone else can see what it’s really happening there except for the two of them. Tyler doesn’t really know what he feels for her is more than just friendship because it’s the way he’s always treated her. As for Ro, she’s scared she’ll never be enough to make him happy.

Where there’s a Doctor, there’s always his companion, and for Tyler’s incarnation, that is Joshua Hastings. The two of them bonded over their mutual love for the timelord and never looked back since. Josh is the person who can give Tyler advice as well; a real role model. Tyler wishes to become just like Josh, even though the two are already very alike.

To every team, there’s the face and then, the brains. Tyler is the latter for Hugo Weasley's former. Together, they make a duo that hardly anyone can top; real Weasley twins level, actually. When they're together, there's bound to be trouble. Real brothers in arms, these two would do anything for each other, no matter the cost.
